Won't work with the 'battery' connection, but you could hook you truck battery to the PV input. In order to get the battery connection to work you'd have to hack the communications protocol between the inverter and the battery controller. What others have done is just hook their EV pack to the PV panel input, supposedly any DC input between about 120V and 550V should work. If you have it grid tied it will push the full 6kw to the grid. However, if it's functioning in island mode it will only pull enough power from the batteries to support the current load on the inverter. Again, this is what I've read online. I haven't tried it yet myself. _______________________________________________ Address messages to [email protected] No other addresses in TO and CC fields UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub ARCHIVE: http://www.evdl.org/archive/ LIST INFO: http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org
